Cranberry Sauce
Ingredients
1 pound (4 cups) fresh cranberries
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup water
1 whole orange
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Sprinkle ground cinnamon to taste (I used about ½ tsp.)
Directions Wash cranberries and set aside. Zest the entire orange and set aside the zest. Cut up orange (without peelings and seeds) into small pieces (I used my food chopper). Bring sugar and water to a boil. Add cranberries, cut up orange pieces, orange zest, and cloves. Simmer over a high flame, stirring frequently, until berries pop open (at this point be careful because when they pop you can get burned. I used one of those lids that look like a screen over the pot, stirring carefully). Remove from heat and add crushed pineapple, walnuts, and cinnamon and blend. Cool and serve. Makes about 2 pints. Note: Thickens up very nicely in the refrigerator by the next day. Enjoy…Yvonne
